News of My Cuckoo.

 

 

               JAC    

 The latest bullletin from the BTO  on its tagged cuckoos, including my JAC.

Approximately 600 km (372 miles) east of this group of Cuckoos and over the border in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) are three of our other birds. Llangollen Cuckoo JAC is 500km due east of Calypso, currently close to the town of Bolomba on the Ikelemba River in north west DRC. Just 70 or so km away to the south east is Trossachs Cuckoo Ellis. Sherwood Cuckoo AJ is also in DRC, approximately 385 km south of JAC and Ellis. He is on the western edge of the North Salongo National Park. This very isolated area which is only accessible by boat is Africa's largest tropical rainforest reserve. Here AJ could be crossing paths with endangered species like the Congo Peacock, Pygmy Chimpanzee or the Bush Elephant.
